You contravene your own statement. Obviously Reich is advocating raising taxes on himself.Kobia2 » 05 Mar 2023, 12:28 pm » wrote: ↑ Same old rusty canned Robin Hood fantasy suggesting if some folks were made to have less in their pockets, that you would somehow have more in yours... The reality is you can tax these rich folks that Robert the Dwarf Reich in this Vid speaks of into oblivion, and that won't equate to a single $Dollar in cash or services that YOU THINK you're ENTITLED to come your way... It will however might pay for more Arms & Munitions to send to Zelinsky..
And by the way, don't you find it odd that Mr. Reich didn't volunteer to lead by example and pay more of his own "Fair Share" as a matter of principle?... He's a Multi $Millionaire himself...
If we raise taxes on the rich maybe we could retire some of this outlandish debt.
Maybe we could subsidize higher education for our students.
None of us think higher taxes on the rich are going to put money directly in our pockets that is specious.
Maybe we could expand Medicaid further and increase the subsidies under the affordable Care act.
Maybe we could reestablish some sort of mental health system.
There are lots of things that could be done with the money.
